PC Power Switch
« on: April 01, 2003, 03:39:43 pm »
Ok I want to relocate my power switch for my PC. The PC has one of those power switches if you push puts PC in stand By but if you hold it for 8 seconds it turns the PC off. My question if I wire in a Momentary Switch will I get the same results?

Thanks

Yes, I use a regular old Arcade button for mine as many here do.

This is true for most newer PC's using ATX motherboards/power supplies. The button in the case is just a momentary and can be replaced/moved easily
